The Walking Dead, Ep. 6.11: “Knots Untie” continues the warm-and-cuddly streak
A quiet episode avoids overt missteps and continues the series’ recent sentimental streak.

Cutting above their weight What words can be made from these letters: OLYZOBESBODI. The most fitting answer is; ‘Bloody Zombies’, you can also make ‘Blimey’ but that’s beside the point. Once again Telltale ventures back into the world of the undead. Episode One of the Michonne mini series rests so precariously on its laurels that …

A silly episode offers a welcome tonal shift, but not much else.
A cataclysmic episode spotlights a rare element for The Walking Dead: hope.
“Start to Finish” is essentially when the survivors of Alexandria have to finally stop and ask: Is this place really worth it?
Since the premiere of The Walking Dead in 2010, various showrunners who’ve adapted the Robert Kirkman comic book, from Frank Darabont to Scott Gimple, have offered their own contributions in the form of original characters. The Walking Dead has strayed considerably from its source material since its premiere, and the writers have offered new characters …
The wheel keeps spinning and history just keeps repeating itself. Much like Rick in “Days Gone Bye,” Glenn Rhee is pinned down under a horde, forced to watch a pal be consumed.
Since 2012 many publications have been crediting Telltale Games with the revival of the adventure genre. Despite this, I haven’t touched The Wolf Among Us or Tales from the Borderlands, and I only played through one chapter of The Walking Dead before deciding it wasn’t compelling enough for me. Despite all their praise and game …
“Always Accountable” is a change from the tone of the first half of season six, while continuing to chronicle how Rick’s group are dealing with the feces hitting the fan.
After last week’s complex and meditative turn with “Here is Not Here,” we’re back to the chaos of the failed plot by Rick and co. to lead the massive herd of walkers away from Alexandria.
I understand what the producers wanted with this episode, in that they stop the entire momentum of the first few installments in order to soothe viewers into a calmer, more complex storyline, but “Here is Here” is definitely this season’s “Slabtown.”
“Thank you” is one of the most emotionally exhausting episodes of The Walking Dead in a while. Not since “The Grove” and “Too Far Gone” have I sat completely tensed from head to toe.
We now know that while Rick’s methods have been cruel in some respects, his way works, and works hard. I say that because, while the Alexandrians are out planning to overthrow him, the Wolves invade and slaughter about twenty five percent of the village.
One thing that you have to love about The Walking Dead is that every season there’s a new stake and a higher cost to consider for our survivors.
While AMC has gained a reputation for series such as Better Call Saul and Halt and Catch Fire, their zombie survival drama The Walking Dead continues to remain one of the channel’s most well-known and commercially successful shows. Based on the Robert Kirkman graphic novel series of the same name, AMC delved further into the …
While there are a number of excellent television episodes that aired during the first half of the year, not all of them made our list, due to a number of reasons, chief among them the simple fact that there are too many episodes potentially worthy of inclusion for the entire panel to watch them all. This is …
Kim Dickens may be an unrecognizable name, but she is certainly a recognizable face. In the past several years, Dickens has had prominent roles in some of the most acclaimed television shows of all time, Sons of Anarchy, Treme, House of Cards, Lost, and Friday Night Lights just to name a few. In each of …
As part of an April Fools’ joke, blogger Julien Knez pretended that he interviewed a hipster who “only watches movies on VHS, and it might just be the best gag published on any blog this year. Knez actually went through the trouble of creating nine completely convincing VHS packages for movies and shows using the …
After Rick’s breakdown, he prepares to talk his way in to staying at Alexandria and is prepared to do whatever it takes, even if it means shedding blood. Meanwhile, Glenn is attacked by Nicholas in the woods, Sasha considers her place among the living, and Daryl and Aaron track a friendly, familiar face in the woods, only to find themselves at death’s doorstep.
Glenn leads a group on a mission to restore power to Alexandria that results in a violent disaster, while Abraham joins a group in help to build Alexandria that ends in a test of heroism and fortitude for him. Meanwhile, Rick investigates a neighbor’s owl sculpture that was mysteriously trashed.
Television history is littered with the bodies of ill-advised spin-offs. Their corpses, copies of reviews and overnights crumpled in their clawed little hands, defile the memories of the successful shows that spawned them and serve as cautionary tales for every writer tempted to go to the same well twice. However, every once in a while, …
Rick and the group try to adapt to their surroundings in Alexandria, as Carol stages a theft in the gun locker preparing for a potential coup. Meanwhile, Daryl bonds with recruiter Aaron over a major opportunity, and Sasha obsesses over the world outside the walls as she grows astonished at the community’s normality.
